    Rain

     we have yesterday's rain today, far more than casually unstill! - a near eternal transparent, cotton-thickweave of space falling fastfrom a gluttinous heaven -surrendering, splattering, splayingthe all around with a raw pour ofalmost too willing surrender. .. .. .. a petty pause snatches six...

    • Hoi hoi Chère E.,
      Being Dutch, I love the rain when it pours into the North Sea. I admit you’ve won me over.
      Your lovely write softens my heart and the more than lovely artwork does the rest.
      Please, keep them coming!
      Kind regards, Gus

    • Sir, as Autumn sheds its leaves, metallic golds an’ brass will live their last before collection, storage in bins, bags or covered heaps. Here an’ there working their best in the dark but – preparing to light another season’s spirit and – soul-like soil! 🙂

    • I used to love to play out in the rain when I was a child. I must still be, because I still love rain and will walk very slowly through it when I go to my car from my house or vice-versa.
      Is it God crying? I doubt it…He is probably dousing us with it to cleanse our hearts and souls.
      Nice write, em.

      • Many, many thank yous, dear friend. Rain is what it is, wet but glorious at the right time! Take care of you, sir.

    • Brought me memories of the sound of rain on a tin roof at our old house, and the smell of petrichor. A wonderful write! “)

    • Many, many thank yous, M.E! Enjoy your happiness.

    • Very pretty, romantic words. Thanks, Emma.

      • Thank your for your kind words. My writing varies so I’m delighted when someone carries words to my nest!

    • Don’t look at the past as ‘wasted’. Brought to your island shore and very far more look back at it as beautiful. Bravo!

      • What a generous review.. many, many thanks. Isn’t the word ‘Bravo’ super satifactory!

    • It does sound like a town that has been forgotten. You described it well, so sad.

      • Yes, as sad as it is there was plenty of time to improve things, but…. Thanks Fia.

    • I lived there for 17 years. But had to move, the police moved out and glitches moved in. They set up tents and overtook the place.

      • I don’t know whether to laugh or sigh at your comment. It was such a great place at one time. Let’s hope this site is a new and better beginning for most of us from Cafe Town. 🙂 Thanks J.

    • Powerfully penned, Tim. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

    • I can see this being read at a podium. I feel the convictions in your words.

    • I hate what is happening with the Epstein case and the lack of respect for the victims…and all the covering up and protecting of those who committed such evil deeds.
      There is no conscience, no conscience. Cold, rich people.

      • What’s happening with the Epstein case is literally showing us that we have no power to fight back…according to them. They silence or eliminate what threatens them. Which – honestly – showcases their fragility perfectly. I’m over here screaming my head off about my truth & healing despite them. They can’t stop me. Cowardly monsters. Thank you

    • Powerful and poignant. Fantastic.

    • The world is strange these days. I don’t understand some of these people, but honestly it’s a good thing. It means I haven’t sold my values.

      I trust one day we will have our strength shown again.

      Great ink friend.

      • I agree. Not understanding them comforts me. I’ll keep my vulnerability & integrity intact & I’m just fine not understanding how their twisted minds work.

        I read something the other day that gave me a moment of peace & hope. Loosely translated it said…light has the power to illuminate in darkness, but dark cannot look into light, it cannot bear it’s glow. I find that very calming. I’ll just keep my little fire burning & let them cower in their dark minds. Thank you, my friend

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! Excellent work my friend, you always bring it. Appreciate you.

      • I have so much going on in my mind on any given day, I have to clear headspace. They don’t always go where I expect them to land. This one started in a dark moment. But I found myself rebelling internally as I wrote & the tone changed. Together is always stronger. Thank you, my friend

    • Sometimes the question we ask ourself is are we damaged or is the world damage. We love the piece Lady, tight

      • I don’t think any single person who encounters another human being isn’t walking wounded. We all walk around bleeding and causing each other further damage. I believe you might be on to something there. Maybe the world is damage. Disheartening that the biggest common denominator amongst us is pain…
